A friend for Ruby

Sofie Laguna, 1968-

Book - 2023

Ruby led the creature out into the garden. She drew a dancing circle in the sand. 'I choose you!' she said to the creature. Walking along the beach, Ruby finds a strange creature on the shore. She takes it home, feeds it and makes a bed of straw for it in her cubby, but a cubby is no place for a creature from the sea. Ruby must draw on all her resources to help the creature find their way home, and perhaps, along the way, she might just find an unexpected friendship. A whimsical tale of friendship, compassion and resourcefulness, from a wonderfully talented creative team.
